LSU is in Trouble and stands a very good chance to lose to Florida, South Carolina and Bama.
If Zach M. doesn't learn pocket awareness and Les Miles doesn't call plays to allow him to throw Darts across the middle for short yardage(Something Zach struggles with already) then the Tigers won't make it to a BCS Bowl game, much less a SHIP.
I don't think the Tigers are NC Material and would wager a bet they do not return to contend for it this year.
Maybe a BCS Bowl game 'IF' they get their act together.
Like I said earlier, we'll know a whole lot after Florida in whether or not this is the Tigers not getting up for chump teams, or if they REALLY have a problem. I think, they have problems.
I was embarrassed watching that game Saturday. My original plan was to leave halfway through the third, but we couldn't manage a solid game against TOWSON, a team that got walloped by Kent State. LSU played sloppy football. The defense needs a fire lit under their asses to help them remember they're not entitled to be here.
I'm worried about Florida. At this point, LSU will not make it to the BCS title game...maybe not even a bowl game.
On another note, stone cold Bama showed some pretty serious weaknesses Saturday night too.
Yea Bama did. They had two 70 yard+/- drive put down their throat. Which just typically doesnt happen. I'm also gettin concerned with the injuries bama are getting. Jalston Fowler out a few weeks ago with torn ACL. Sat vs ole miss. Deandre White and Dee hart went out for the yr with torn ACL(just announced). Hart injuried the same knee as last year. Luckily bama is pretty deep in both spots but it sucks to lose any players. Deon Blue had a shoulder injury, but they think he will be fine. Hopefully us having a bye week will get some nicked up players back healthy.
Dear god. You chicken little folks need to find another team. There is no perfect team. They all have weaknesses. NO TEAM EVER has just went out & laid it to the opposing team week after week. The Best Teams each year will look dominant a handful of times, good others, and just get away with a win in a few. Winning is winning. It's not pretty. It's not glamorous. It's surviving the season. You don't have to be the best team in the country each weekend. You just have to be the best team in the stadium.
Stop getting so bent out of shape about people looking at things objectively. Winning is winning, and I'll tell you right now that if LSU doesn't get their **** together, you're not going to see much more winning.
Seriously right? I'm not blinded by my Purple & Yellow Glasses.
LSU has problems, and they need to be addressed quick-fast-and-in-a-hurry if they want to be contending for anything better than the Better Brakes Bowl.
Unfortunetly, its not just about "surviving the season" you have to prove you are a dominate team to be in contention for a Nat' Championship. Beating Towson by a few and beating Auburn by a few are not the same. I am holding off on my opinion on this years team until next Saturday. Then we will know what we have. Mettenberger needs to grow a pair and be a leader! And get rid of that stupid mustache, your not good enough to try to be funny yet.
All due respect to Ole Miss, which is a much-improved football team from last year, but Bama was flatter than a pancake Saturday night and won by three TDs. OM did have some short-lived success on offense, but once Bama made adjustments and forced them to pass we took over and put them away.
I'm a little curious as to why no more downfield passing when it was obvious that OM was bound and determined not to let us run, but it didn't make much difference in the outcome.
Injuries are unfortunate but a part of the game. I still look for LSU and Bama to both be improved by November 3, and I certainly expect to get LSU's best shot in that one.
I was curious about that as well, especially seeing that White isn't really Bama's deep threat. His YPC average is low, but that's exactly why he's so important.
Norm Chow needs to make a change at QB and play David, because the Duke transfer aint getting it done behind center, I have watched a couple of their games this year and he looks lost and has no grasp of the offense, David can move that offense
Stud the dud needs to get his fat a$$ out the booth, give up The OC gig, & do his gosh damn job as an OL coach. He's going to be sole responsible for getting Mett hurt @ this rate. Crappy play calling and an even worse OL. The WRs have to catch passes. Slingblade showing no nuts yet again. The personnel packages = WTF????
and the fact that the first Gator TD came when Minter was taken out of the game.
LSU will have major issues going forward. With injuries, we basically have a pre-season boot O-line trying to give a mediocre QB time to throw much less make a hole for a RB to run through.
Incredibly ill timed Dropped Passes, another 8+ penalties gunna be a long season, if a season at all. I don't see how they plan to fix the broken O-line in the middle of the season.
Another problem is Clement blocking ability or lack there of. He cost some key yardage by failing to block. I saw at least 4 missed(piss poor) blocks on essential 3rd and shorts.
I also found myself asking the same question I do watching the Saints. WHY ARE WE NOT RUNNING THE BALL!?!?!?!?!?
25 mere attempts? Who's fault is that? - Players don't call the plays.
my Horns defense got exposed by giving up 48 to WVU, and Mack Brown has shown what a big underachiever his teams are considering he is 0-8 against top 10 ranked teams and how well they recruit..
.
LSWhat and Aints must be making life in the Bayou difficult these days, TAMU 3 point loss to the Gators is looking better all the time, at least the Aggie's freshman QB put up 2 TDs
The real questions, are the Cowboys worse than the 0-4 Saints and if LSU had a QB would they be better than either of them. Aggies don't belong in that discussion because they, unlike the other three, are not underachievers.

Give us Coach Payton back and we are 4 - 0. And, I blame LSU's shortcomings on Les Miles, time for him to go! Tigers have too much D talent even with 7 Freshman playing and a solid stable of RB's. His Big 10 mentality won't win the "big games" consistantly in the SEC.

as well as Manziel is playing QB at TAMU, UT fans might be lucky that they no longer have to play the Aggies...I think the might be able to play with LSU...for at least the first half

It's more "The Boys" than it is 'Romo". He's gonna get killed back there. I'm beginning to think that Dez is just to dumb to play at the Pro level. He either can't remember the routes or never knew them in the first place. Great athletic ability wasted.
